TROUSERS

Contemporary women’s trousers reflect a design landscape of dynamism, playing with the significations of femininity, masculinity, and gender fluidity in an expanding range of materials and silhouettes. Wide-leg culottes impart a sense of airy grace and urbane assertiveness. Skinny-fit trousers flatter body type, imparting a confident energy and of-the-moment vivaciousness. Straight-leg garment-pleated trousers and crinkled woven trousers find beauty in aesthetic and technical innovation, bringing forth new emotional and conceptual energies. A variety of work trousers in relaxed-fit cotton-twill and heavier wool options echo the craftsmanship, durability, and unimpeachable poise of a heritage style. Cropped trousers provide neat contours and shape, as well as the possibility of perfect sock and shoe coordination. Non-standard, eye-catching options arrive in materials like velvet, cashmere-blend, TPU rubber and stretch vinyl, cutting unlikely forms and flourishes for situations where time-worn neutrality simply will not do. Cargo pants, meanwhile, have entered a new period of formalism and high-end appeal, progressing naturally from urban subcultural affiliations to reach the status of vital design object.
